Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] & _About the fan system and its protection method. [Prior Art] A conventional fan system 1 is disclosed by the 2nd system, which is mainly composed of at least one wind=〇=, a capacitor Ci, at least one protection component 20, and a power source for crying, and The driving circuit 10 is electrically connected to the red, and is electrically connected to the driving circuit by a switching element 11 and a driving element 12. 10, the wind ^ 3 〇 connected to the ground end 'the protection element 20 and the 3 2 and 2 when the power is turned on, the turn off 11 is turned on or off, when the switch element ? mf electric m is stored , providing voltage and ΐίΐ1 22 protection member 20 and the fans 30, and when there is any machine-wheeling short-circuit (such as the fan internal wire table = 30 iron pieces), if the shaft (four) component 2Q (The implementation of the current f can be immediately blown and isolated from the short-circuit event, when it can reach 驱动) the drive circuit 10 and the fans 30 in the latter stage; in fact, the protection element 20 is passive protection. If the component is short-circuited, the protection component 20 is not blown. At this time, because the driver component 12 / The flow detecting device (not shown) continuously detects this - short = one of the driving circuit 10 will be turned off when the short circuit event cannot be released, and the switching element 11 is turned off, resulting in all subsequent stages The fan 3 〇 机 machine 'and the same stop operation 5 1302395, 'this ^ the fan ^ system i is responsible for the heat dissipation of the load will not be able to operate due to insufficient heat dissipation' all the lockouts or the result of overheating damage: [Summary] In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a fan system including an active protection function and a protection method thereof, which can forcibly burn or disable the protection components when a short circuit occurs, without causing a fault and A situation of mis-reaction occurs. In order to achieve the above object, the present invention discloses a fan system electrically connected to a power supply and receiving a power source generated by the power supply. The fan system is mainly composed of at least one driving circuit, a protection circuit, at least one protection component and at least one fan, wherein the dynamic circuit is electrically connected to the fans, and the driving circuit can receive the m driving In the fan, the (four) components are electrically connected in series to the fans, and one end thereof is commonly connected to the circuit, and the tilt circuit is electrically connected to the (four) component and the driving circuit. And the output current value of the fan is greater than the corresponding one of the fans when the short circuit occurs, whereby the protection 70 will fail to make the fan no longer obtain power. Stop recording. To achieve the purpose, the present invention further provides a protection system for a fan system. The fan is mainly composed of a circuit, a circuit, at least a protection component and at least a fan. The drive circuit can drive the fan circuit. And the protection circuit is electrically connected to the driving circuit, and the plurality of components of the fan are electrically connected in series to the fan terminals (four) electrically connected to the protection circuit, and the protection is The voltage value of the protection element selects the output of the protection circuit, and the current value is greater than the protection element of the corresponding fan when the one of the fans is short-circuited. The current limiting value is as shown in FIG. 3, and in the embodiment, the protection circuit 50 is formed by a plurality of capacitors C2 connected in parallel, and thus formed as a protection circuit 50 having a large capacitance value. In one case, when any branch path generates a short circuit condition, since the impedance of the short circuit path is the smallest, almost all of the current output by the protection circuit 50 flows to the short circuit path, and a large current due to a large capacitance value is generated. Characteristics, the protective element 60 can force the blown or failure, and the branch path so that the fan 70 is stopped. It should be noted that the short circuit of the short circuit path does not affect other branch paths, so the output current of the protection circuit 50 can continue to be distributed to other branch paths to operate the fans 70, and the heat dissipation effect of the fan system 3 is not improved. Therefore, it disappears, so that the drive circuit 40 does not cause an abnormality due to an abnormality of the current, and the operation smoothness of the entire fan system 3 is more effectively maintained. In addition, the present invention is faster in response speed than the detection reaction time of a current detecting device (not shown) provided in the driving component 42 by the feature that the short-circuit path is immediately broken. It can be ensured that the driving element 42 does not short-circuit any of the branch paths, so that the switching element 41 is turned off, so that the fans 70 of the latter stage can no longer provide heat dissipation. Please refer to FIG. 4 again, the fan of the present invention. The drive circuit 40 in system 3 can be constructed from a software plus hardware architecture. The switching element 41 is a transistor Qi, especially implemented as an N-channel MOSFET; and the driving component 42 mainly includes an integrated circuit chip 1C'. The integrated circuit chip 1C can receive the power supply 2 The power source controls the opening or closing of the switching element 41. Referring to FIG. 5 again, the driving circuit 40 of the fan system 3 of the present invention can be implemented as a soft start circuit. The switching element 41 is a transistor Q2, which is implemented as a P-channel MOSFET; and the driving element 42 is mainly composed of a resistor R!~Rs, a diode Di~D, a transistor Q3, and an electric 1302395 container. A main passive component such as C3 is provided. When the driving component 42 receives the power generated by the electrical device 2 and turns on the transistor q3, the transistor is turned on. 』Controlling: According to the invention, the fan system and the protection thereof can be used in any branch path to generate a short circuit, and the protection circuit forcing the protection element to be blown or failed. The protection method includes selecting a protection circuit capable of outputting a current greater than the protection element, so that the protection element can be blown or failed in any branch path short=~ value, and the short circuit condition path is generated. No, it will ring the normal operation of other branch paths, and further protect the heat dissipation effect of the fan system. The above is merely illustrative and not limiting. It is to be understood that the spirit of the present invention and the scope of the present invention are included in the scope of the appended claims.
